Gas Prices

What freegas fails to understand the ship can be held for damages, the cargo cannot as is owned by someone else and was never abandoned to be considered salvage score.

Are reports on other forums that the ship is being off loaded to other carriers.

As to what I noted, IE lumber, steel form materials as studs or structural steel as in Red Iron buildings. Still several US manufacturers(for now) producing higher quality hardware just at limited levels due to employee shortage.

Gas was $2.78 today at a handful of stations, $2.88 + at the majority of places. E 85 is $2.72 locally  .

Are the Egyptians allowing off loads ?? I'm guessing NOT !! PLEASE don't link YOU TUBE BS reports  !!

KEY Point is the Ever Given was NEVER Abandoned, it was NEVER in need of "Salvage" as in NON Powered or needing to be towed INTO a port as it was In One.  THAT in and of itself removes the "Salvors Clause" of ownership of commodities aboard.  Next Up, the "SHIP" and Crew made the damage to the Canal NOT the CARGO where the cargo remains personal property NOT of the Shipping line but Contract customers using transport.  Finally there are plans underway to remove the containers to OTHER ships to send the materials on to "EUROPE", never intended for US Consumers.  Freegass needs more beer as evidently has NOT the capability to research ANYTHING.

Not hard to swing conex boxes at sea anymore
Many Ships have there own cranes to move them where those as the Ever Given rely on dock side cranes can still be off loaded by another ship.

Paid $2.77 for regular this morning .

I "paid" $2.68 this morning at a local WALMART , saw $3.05 5 miles away and then $3.09  8 miles away . There's no rhyme or reason for this  IMO

$4.48 at the gas dock yesterday.  Won't be much boating this year.  Fortunately, commercial fisherman all buy their fuel at street pumps.

I just paid $2.809 at a local Walmart this evening

Even the Walmart was $2.98 last weekend "here" , IMO, gouging at it's best

Those who came up with and voted for the Carbon Tax can suck the business end of a honey wagon hose.
